I think it is funny how Brits use the word "Proper" in the same sense that Americans use "Real" or "Actual"

Ita haec vita hominum ad modicum apparet; quid autem sequatur, quidue praecesserit, prorsus ignoramus.So this life of man appears for a short space, but of what went before, or what is to follow, we are utterly ignorant.-- Saint Bede the Venerable

Well thats because I can't use real because there are no fakes. I guess I could of used actual but thats besides the point :P I just want to have proper time schedules for when each game is showing because I want to see AC3 and Far Cry 3

There are people who live in a dream world, And there are people who live in Reality; And there are those that turn one into the other.

I think "Proper" is subjective whereas "Actual" is objective. But to each their own!

I would like an actual schedule as well so I can plan when to see the vids.

I was just saying, we use the word "real or "actual" in the same way English use "proper"

So, "Now this is a real cup of tea!" vs. "Now this is a proper cup of tea!"

We don't really use mum. Mom, mother, but not mum.
